Synthesized from the figures below est. — every claim rests on a number shown on this page. Valuation uses the biotech sector profile.

Analyst read est. — computed against this company's niche peers in the same era. Inputs shown; not a quoted figure.

Under-valued
  • Modeled value is 0.03× the median modeled value of Series B Biotechnology companies in 2010–2012 (48 peers) — value vs value, same stage and era.
Dormant
  • Last raise 15.3 yr ago; this sector typically re-raises about every 14 months.
  • Silent for over 3× the sector's normal cadence.

How it compares to the market

Benchmarked against 4291 companies in Biotechnology. Each bar is a median (the middle company, not an average — outliers don't skew it). Two yardsticks: real money raised (reported on Form D) and modeled value (our estimate est.). These are whole-sector medians across all stages, except the per-stage row.

Total raised — vs sector median (real $, all stages) 3.1× above median
This company$22.5M
Sector median$7.2M
Latest round — vs other Series B rounds in sector (real $, this stage) 0.0× of median
This company$500K

Raised more than 69% of sector peers (real $). Modeled value above 28% of peers (estimate).

Niche peers — same stage & era

A tighter cohort than the sector chart above — only companies at the same stage (Series B) that last raised in the same ~3-year era, ranked by modeled value est. (not money raised). This is the exact set the analyst read compares against, so a like-for-like cohort is what makes "over/under-valued" meaningful. This company ranks #46 of 48.
